Not Just For Kids Podcast


Apr 14, 2021

“Then, I'll never ever leave. I'll always be with you."

For those who cherish Disney, worship at the altar of Spielberg, love nothing more than immersing themselves into the world of Aardman, let us introduce you to Not Just For Kids. This is the podcast that revisits the films we cherished growing up, be they family films or something we maybe shouldn’t have been watching. Host Russell Bailey continues his journey through the works of Studio Ghibli.

Film academic Rayna Deninson joins this week to discuss Isao Takahata's powerful dramas that look back at the history of Japan in the 20th century, Grave of the Fireflies and Only Yesterday.
